In the Library with the Lead Pipe (Mar 2023)
Compounded Labor: Developing OER as a Marginalized Creator
Abstract
From the lens of a new Online Educational Resources (OER) Librarian embarking on an OER initiative at an R1 university I reflect on creating and implementing an English OER textbook and curriculum at a community college. I use an autoethnographic method of writing and research to discuss how my personal and professional experience influences my approach to supporting OER creators, and I reflect on my experience as an OER creator from the intersection of being both Latinx and a working class woman working at a Hispanic-Serving Institution (HSI) situated in a majority-minority state in the United States.
